I stayed here in the first week of January 2024 for a ski holiday with my brother and it was fabulous. This is a two-bedroom, one-bathroom condo, and it feels more spacious than we expected. We were two guys staying here for seven days, and we each had a bedroom to ourselves.
This condo is in superb condition, everything feels brand-new and looks as if it was just renovated. It's beautiful. There is LOTS of storage space here, and we had brought up a lot of stuff with us for the week and were worried on the drive up about where we were going to put everything, but this place has tons of storage space so that wasn't an issue and it's great to have keep everything tidy out-of-sight in the cabinets and closets.
A genuine working fireplace gave cozy Christmas-cabin vibes while we kicked back on the large plush sofa for evening Netflix movies. At one point my brother and I just spent the day lounging in our own private bedrooms, so it was nice that each bedroom also has its own large TV.
The bathroom has a very interesting feature which I have never seen elsewhere: there is a “Steam Room” feature in the shower which turns it into a steam room just like at a spa, and you can sit down on a seat in the shower and just relax while breathing in the steam for as long as you want. I had a bit of a cold when I arrived and this actually really cleared out my sinuses, with the bonus of a 'spa glow' on the face. After a long day of skiing up on a cold mountain, this was wonderful way to unwind, almost like going to a spa but without leaving the house
My brother and I cooked up some big dinners here and the kitchen was comprehensively stocked with every tool and utensil we needed.
The location of this place is AMAZING. We skied every day, and this is THE BEST location in Whistler for skiers, no joke. It is a two-minute walk to the Blackcomb Gondola, and *also* a two-minute walk to the Whistler Gondola. There are a handful of places which are about this close to the Blackcomb Gondola, and there are a handful of places which are about this close to the Whistler Gondola -- but I honestly don't think there is any other place in Whistler which is located so close to BOTH of the resort's two main upload points. I think “The Gables” is pretty much unique in that regard, so if you are here to ski/board/bike or otherwise to get up on the mountain at any time of the year, you really cannot beat this location.
I would highly recommend staying at this condo and I am already planning my next visit back here. Five stars out of five stars.
